So it’s like the title says. I created this community to kinda fill the void from the reddit shutdown, and have no real idea on how to moderate a community like this, especially if it ends up huge like the one on Reddit.
Seeing as I have little moderation experience, if anyone is interested in moderating for this community just lmk and I’ll see about setting you up.
TL;DR - Created a potentially huge amount of work for myself that I’m super unfamiliar with.
Oh wow, I didn’t know of this limitation.
We could open an issue on GitHub proposing a change. In the meantime, you could add to your sidebar suggesting users paste text larger than 10k into Pastebin or another equivalent website and create the post as a link, rather than filling the body.
Ideally, apps like Jerboa could have built in parsers to load text from Pastebin, images from Imgur, and so on, in elegant integrated ways which could mitigate limitations with Lemmy itself.
It looks like there’s already an issue open on GitHub (though I’m no expert, so correct me if this isn’t an enhancement request)
That’s a good idea about using a 3rd party site! I’ve never heard of pastebin, but I’ll look it up now :) Thanks!!
